Would the Texas police

have smashed the door

down in the middle of the

night..

if both of the men

had been black

or if both of the men

had been white?



(In Lawrence vs Texas, which brings the 13

states' invasive sodomy laws into sharp

focus.. perhaps the police acted

because the couple was biracial.

In Tulio, a man was sent to jail

for 90 years for 1 cocaine transaction.)
